Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prepare the cucumber salad

  • Peel the cucumber, if desired; cut the cucumber into ½-inch pieces.
  • Peel and finely chop enough onion to measure ¼ cup [½ cup].
  • Set aside half the dill for the lemon-dill aioli.
In a large bowl, combine the cucumber, onion, champagne vinegar, half the dill, and as much Aleppo chile as you like. Season with salt, if desired, and pepper and toss to coat. Let stand, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the rest of the meal.

2

Cook the salmon burgers

  • Pat the salmon burgers dry with a paper towel.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the salmon burgers and cook, turning once, until browned and just cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
While the burgers cook, prepare the remaining ingredients.

3

Prep the lettuce and tomato; make the lemon-dill aioli

  • Trim the root end from the romaine; remove 4 [8] of the largest outer leaves for the burgers and save the remaining romaine for another use.
  • Cut away the core from the tomato; cut the tomato into ¼-inch-thick slices.
In a small bowl, stir together the lemon aioli and remaining dill. Season with salt, if desired, and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the romaine leaves to individual plates. Top with the salmon burgers and tomato slices and dollop each with 1 tablespoon lemon-dill aioli. Serve the cucumber salad and remaining aioli on the side.
